Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2551792A2] A system and method for computing a place profile are disclosed. The method includes providing (S104) a geographical definition of a place, retrieving (S106) a set of images based on the geographical place definition. With a classifier, image-level statistics for the retrieved images are generated (S108). The classifier has been trained to generate image-level statistics for a finite set of classes, such as different activities. The image-level statistics are aggregated (S110) to generate a place profile for the defined place which may be displayed to a user who has provided information for generating the geographical definition or used in an application such as a recommender system or to generate a personal profile for the user.
